Bacon Lettuce Tomato Salad with Grilled Corn and Avocado

Is there any better way to savor the flavors of summer than with a bacon, lettuce, tomato salad topped with some fresh grilled corn and creamy avocado? I think not.

When the end of August is here, don’t you just want to squeeze every last second out of what’s left of summer? The other night I noticed that it was a little darker than usual around 7:00pm, and it hit me – it’s almost over 🙁 It’s almost time to turn on the lights, squeeze into the jeans, and stock up on canned pumpkin. I’m not ready!!

I’m determined to savor every last drop of summer, so of course, that means eating my fill of peaches and melons, and of course, fresh tomatoes, and grilled corn on the cob. This Bacon Lettuce Tomato salad is hands-down one of my favorite late summer meals. I could eat it every week (and many weeks I do!).

This is such an easy salad to make ahead and take on a picnic, or to the pool, and any leftovers are perfect for tomorrow’s lunch.

And speaking of packing for a picnic, or lunch for work – have you discovered Rubbermaid’s BRILLIANCE Lunch kits? I’m so in love with this product, because as you might know – I’m kind of a salad junkie. As pretty as those mason jar salads are, let’s be honest, have you ever tried to eat a salad out of a mason jar? Not super-effective. I think salads are best when everything is crisp and assembled right before eating. If you’re like me though, that means that everything gets packed in mismatched storage containers – half of which don’t have lids.

No more of that people! Rubbermaid BRILLIANCE Lunch containers have customizable insert trays and dividers, so you can create separated compartments all in one food storage container. Everything stays in its place. Goodbye soggy salads, and hello fresh, crisp deliciousness! Check it out:

A few other things I love about this product:

It’s 100% guaranteed leak-proof. Pack it in your prettiest beach bag, or your briefcase (do people still use briefcases?)

It’s BPA-free, and safe for the dishwasher, microwave, and freezer. I love the idea of zapping the corn, bacon, and maybe even dressing for this salad for a second to warm them up before tossing everything
